Elise Testone

Elise Testone appeared on national TV and done interviews with Ellen DeGeneres, Jay Leno, and Anderson Cooper not to mention being a finalist on American Idol's 11th Season. She received heartfelt accolades from Stevie Nicks and Steven Tyler on her abilities and talent…..she even got to shake hands with President Bill Clinton in the whirlwind that has been her life recently.

2013 has found Elise back in her adopted home of Charleston, SC starting the year with an incredible sold-out homecoming show at the Charleston Music Hall on Valentine's Night. She has recently played opening slots with B.B. King as well as joining Hootie and Blowfish at their annual "Monday After the Masters" fundraiser at the House in Blues in Myrtle Beach, SC. She has been hard at work in the studio working on her debut release due out in the fall.

But with all the hype and buzz surrounding her career right now, in many ways Elise Testone is simply staying on the path that she has been pursuing with discipline and persistence since she was a child. She continues to be focused on creating beautiful music and is surrounding herself with an excellent band that she deftly leads through soulful and intricate compositions that are resonating with bigger and bigger audiences as she enters this exciting next chapter of her life.
